    Ok, I have a release candidate for the final v0.5 ready! smiley

    Get it from here

    I attached the changelog to this post to quickly see what’s going on..

    See the new parameters and their explanations in the resource page. There is a section "New parameters in RC 1".

    Please report any issues you encounter. If there won’t be any bug reports, I’ll make this as v0.5 final after some time. This should be quite stable to use.

    If you have reported some bug and it’s not fixed in this release, please see the the Trac site and if your bug is not listed in there either, please add it as a new ticket and report here..

    I’ll try to update the MODx Wiki site to correspond this release and make some examples there. I will also setup a new example site sometime in near future.

    Thanks!

        Here’s few examples how you can do what MaxiGallerySolo does:

        [!MaxiGallery? &gal_query_ids=`67,23,4` &display=`embedded` &embedtype=`slimbox` &order_by=`date` &limit=`5`!]

        • Retrieves 5 latest pictures from galleries 67,23,4
        • Uses slimbox display type

        [!MaxiGallery? &gal_query_ids=`all` &order_by=`date` &limit=`5`!]

        • Retrieves 5 latest pictures from all galleries
        • Opens the pictures in normal display mode

        [!MaxiGallery? &gal_query_ids=`67` &query_level_limit=`5` &order_by=`random` &limit=`5`!]

        • Retrieves 5 random pictures from gallery 67 and 5 level deep childgalleries

        [!MaxiGallery? &gal_query_ids=`all` &order_by=`random` &limit=`5`!]

        • Retrieves 5 random pictures from all galleries

        [!MaxiGallery? &pic_query_ids=`32,42,52,61` &display=`embedded` &embedtype=`smoothgallery`!]

        • Displays pictures with id 32,42,52 and 61 in a smoothgallery

        Also here’s some examples of new childgalleries features:

        [!MaxiGallery? &childgalleries_ids=`all` &display=`childgalleries` &order_by=`random` &childgalleries_order_by=`createdon`!]

        • Lists all galleries
        • Each gallery has random picture in [+maxigallery.picture.fieldname+] placeholder
        • Child galleries are sorted by createdon MODx document object field

        [!MaxiGallery? &childgalleries_ids=`67,5` &display=`childgalleries` &order_by=`pos` &childgalleries_level_limit=`10`!]

        • Lists all galleries under 67 and 5, 10 levels deep
        • Get’s a picture for the galleries [+maxigallery.picture.fieldname+] placeholder by position field

        These are just few examples of new things.. Feel free to ask if you don’t know how to do something, preferably in a new thread though if it’s not related to RC1 somehow..

            I didn’t even notice the year, but yeah those are running so fast (especially here) it’s hard to keep up wink

              I’ve installed MODx 0.9.6-RC1 and MaxiGallery 0.5-RC1 and there seems to be a conflict.

              When QuickEdit is active, whenever I click on a thumb to show the image in a slidebox, the screen goes dark (as it shoud go), there is a "loading" animation and in the next step, the image opens but not in the "postcard frame" in the middle but simply as a link to the image, a new page is loaded and it shows te image.

              I’ve played around to discover that the mootols.js bundled with QuickEdit somehow interferes. If I compare, the MODx 0.9.5 does not have a QuickEdit with mootols.js.

              If I unload the assets/modules/quick_edit/javascript/mootols.js, everything seems to be just fine (except for the QuickEdit of course wink ) and the MaxiGallery works correctly.

                It is because the default template already has mootools in it. use &disable_js_libs=`1` in the snippet call to make maxigallery not include the mootools library..

                  MaxiGallery.php file shows .5 beta 2.

                  It’s minor. Just getting started on the testing.

                    I tried smoothgallery as an embed type and it just shows all my photos including thumbnails on one page. I’m not sure what else to include.

                    Can I do something like this?
                    [!MaxiGallery? &childgalleries_ids=`all` &display=`childgalleries` &order_by=`random` &childgalleries_order_by=`createdon` &embedtype=`smoothgallery`!]

                      I’ve updated the wiki with the new parameters and the examples you provided above. But I didn’t touch the template portions.
                      http://wiki.modxcms.com/index.php/MaxiGallery

                      Hopefully this should save you some time to update your demo site ;-)

                      Great work!
